Description

This app is a modification of Google's stock camera app. I have fixed some small menu positioning issues, increased font size, and have enabled the R button on the Xperia Play as the shutter button for taking photos and recording videos and the L button to act as focus in photo mode.

The donation version includes ability to skin the interface!

STOP ASKING FOR ZOOM IT WONT BE ADDED. This app was a modification of the stock app and i wont add features. The Xperia PLAY camera doesn't support zoom anyway so it's pointless digital zoom is just cropping so go do it in the gallery. You'd just all complain the zoom quality was bad, you'd be better off drawing it than digital zoom!

If the application does not work please try reinstalling the application and if that doesn't solve it try rebooting your handset. That should fix most if not all issues, if it doesn't contact me!

This application can be discussed at the XDA forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1085914 or feel free to email me. I AM UNABLE TO ANSWER ANY COMMENTS BELOW SO PLEASE EMAIL ME BEFORE POSTING NEGATIVE COMMENTS THANKS. In response to a comment below the app has permission that GOOGLE set as this is their code, I only modified the button handling. GPS = Geotagging (google it) and SMS = Sending picture messages (Click the photoframe with a plus sign in the SE Messaging app and press take photo to see what I mean).

I do not take credit for the camera app its self, that is work of the great volunteers and Google employees who have worked on android. I only take credit for the modifications I have performed on their code. I offer this app with NO warranty and do not take responsibly for any issue that arise from using it.

Does what it says on the tin I had no problem with the default Android 2.3 camera app, outside of the fact that I couldn't use the shoulder buttons on my device to take pictures. This mod simply adds that functionality, and it works just the way I need it to, with no bloat, ads, or anything stupid to detract from it. No complaints here!

Cool You should add zoom in it because if you want to take a pucture of a bird you would have to be 1 foot away of it and when you go to your gallery and zoom in on a picture it gets blurry,so can you add zoom please and other zoom apps don't let you zoom and if you did add zoom I would be happy so I mean I would be really really happy.

A solution. ....... My camera of x10 is not working shows unknown error and stops working by this I got my camera works back .... thankz

Exactly what I needed.. I recently installed Cyanogenmod 9 on my Xperia Play. The camera app that is prebuilt is terrible in my opinion. This conveniently small application brings back the Gingerbread UI that I am used to. It even is optimized to utilize the shoulder buttons. Amazing little app; it's perfect.

I like this app very much.It has good quality of pics and also video but one thing terribly needed and thats zoom on video.Pls fix that.

Better than original app cam Everythink is good. But when I enter gallery, it's always crash (Unfortunately, album has stop working). I suggest for shutter relocation. It's better if replace to upper right side for easier access. Please fix it. Thanks

Video problems... Great app if you only use the camera. The video camera doesn't work at all with my EVO Design. Everytime I try to use the video camera it force closes. Fix that and this is an amazing app.

Awesome. Does what should have been done from factory. Every xperia play owner should have this. Would be nice to see some more incentives for donating for the full featured app. maybe map the L trigger to a zoom or flash setting or something? And perhaps a quick launch from a locked screen, if at all possible. No biggie, 5 star!

Fixed My camera was stuck in some brown color mode and wouldnt change in the settings. Tried this so i had an actual button to press when takin pics of myself in hi res. Camera colour now fixed so is well happy ;)

Worked the first time, then never again It was great the very first time when I launched it. But that was it. I would give 5 stars all the way if it worked every time. Fyi, I'm running stock gingerbread 2.3.3.... If you can can fix, I will get the paid version

Not just for xperia play This is a great modification on the stock camera, it would have been good to still be able to use the zoom buttons on my phone rather than the one on the screen, but this camera can be used on any android phone not just xperia play.

I want a descent working camera I just would like to c just once a video n camera with flash...I set everything it seems to grasp this concept but either the video has flash n not the camera or vice versa...IS IT SO HARD TO ASK FOR? HONEY GOOGLE TELL ME WHY?
